Through Facebook, Youtube and my blog I share sculpting tips and techniques. I also share sculpting demonstrations, especially of celebrity waxwork portraits - earning me the tongue-in-cheek moniker 'Sculptor of the Stars'.After graduating from Wimbledon School of Art in 1998 with a degree in Technical Arts, I immediately started working as a freelance sculptor and prop maker in the film industry in and around London.After a few years I realised that I wanted to specialise in figurative sculpture, and discovered an amazing realist art school - The Florence Academy in Italy. Through a combination of working on films between terms, winning first prize in an online realist art competition (ARC Salon Scholarship Competition), and a scholarship from the school itself, I managed to study in Italy for two years - graduating from the sculpture programme in 2004. It was an incredible experience, and I learnt so much, working entirely from life models, and studying anatomy in great depth.After returning to London, I started working as a freelance portrait artist and figure sculptor for Madame Tussauds. This felt like an extension of my education, as I learnt how to work effectively from photographs, as opposed to life sculpting - and alongside some of the finest sculptors in the world. I worked there on and off for ten years, creating dozens of life-size figures and portraits of every kind of person you could imagine, including historical figures, for all of their museums across the world. When not working at Madame Tussauds, I continued to work on films - as well as sculpting for some of Britain’s most successful contemporary artists (realising the ideas of artists who cannot sculpt). I continue to take commissions for hyper-realistic portraits and figures for museums, working from my studio in Lewes, East Sussex.In 2014 I was commissioned to sculpt the portraits of all four members of Abba for their own museum, in Stockholm. I travelled to Sweden to visit each of them for a sitting, which was very exciting - as I am a huge fan.In 2016, I became one of six sculptors to be shortlisted for the new Emmeline Pankhurst public sculpture in Manchester.
